In a preliminary part of this paper, we analyze the necessity of randomness in evolution strategies. We conclude to the necessity of ”continuous”-randomness, but with a much m...
Abstract. The plane-based calibration consists in recovering the internal parameters of the camera from the views of a planar pattern with a known geometric structure. The existing...
Abstract. We revisit Gaussian Adaptation (GaA), a black-box optimizer for discrete and continuous problems that has been developed in the late 1960’s. This largely neglected sear...
Density modeling is notoriously difficult for high dimensional data. One approach to the problem is to search for a lower dimensional manifold which captures the main characteristi...
